Wes likes to modify and upgrade. The truck has a cooler, but Wes sees room for improvement.

I leave mine stock.

Wes is a very good source of information for what works and what doesn't. He puts more miles on his 5ton than any 5 people I know. There's no substitute for sample size...

Ah ok. I see. You slipped that one in on a new page.

It's fine though. You can relax at the rally while I pull you around the field.

98G won't be there to witness an Allison walking a Cat. But...it has been done before so this is basically how it will go down.

This is Allison. This is how she walked a Cat...

In regards to pulling a gooseneck trailer with 12v wiring and electric brakes, how are you guys setting that up behind these rigs?

What is the width of the inside of these frame rails for getting somtbing made up or using a factory gooseneck hitch bracket

Would this plug into a M931a1s trailer plug ?

Sorry for all these ridiculous quesion, I'm trying to jump into the deep end with the purchase of one of these and I dont got any water wings!

air over electric brake controller like a Hayes HA100400C

for the lights, I remember seeing someone on here having an adapter box to go from 24v military plug to a 12v


I dont know how they get brakes out of that box, but it will work on the lights for sure

Another thing, the truck will do a majority of the braking if you are gooose necking, the trailer brake operation just makes it legal
